Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with AWS CloudFormation provides a productive and safe way to manage infrastructure. The new Pkl declarative language and the CloudFormation Pkl library can bring further productivity gains through better type-safety, reusability with functions and data types, and great IDE support.

In this session, learn how to use AWS CloudFormation and the AWS CDK to deploy cloud applications in regulated environments while enforcing security controls. Find out how to catch issues early with cdk-nag, validate your pipelines with cfn-guard, and protect your accounts from unintended changes with CloudFormation hooks.

This chalk talk focuses on organizing components and pipelines with the AWS CDK. Learn how to decide on trade-offs around operational excellence, reliability, and delivery performance.

Provisioning, automating, and orchestrating IaC on AWS Join this chalk talk to get your questions answered about virtually all things infrastructure as code (IaC), including AWS services and AWS Partner IaC products. Explore topics such as IaC patterns, AWS CDK, and AWS CloudFormation.

This chalk talk answers your questions about infrastructure as code (IaC), including relevant AWS services and partner products. It covers topics like IaC patterns, the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) and AWS CloudFormation, augmentation of your CI/CD workflows with services like AWS Systems Manager, and how to select the right tools for the job.

In this workshop, you learn how to build a CI/CD pipeline (AWS CodePipeline) to develop a web-based application, containerize it, and deploy it on a serverless Amazon ECS cluster (AWS Fargate). You use the blue/green method to deploy it, and you implement a switchover method using an AWS Lambda function.
